LOS ANGELES (AP) — Jake Arrieta put the Philadelphia Phillies back on control.
A day after a tough loss, the Phillies bounced back Tuesday night as Arrieta finished off one of the better months of his impressive career with a 6-1 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Arrieta did exactly what the Phillies envisioned when they signed him to a three-year, $75 million deal in March. He delivered his third scoreless outing this May, helping the Phillies end a four-game losing streak at Dodger Stadium and win in Los Angeles for the first time since 2016.
Arrieta (5-2) gave up six hits over seven innings, while striking out five, as he won for the second time in his career at Chavez Ravine.
